    I'm not sure what, but I'm fairly certain that most (if not all) clubs have made additional measures available since 14th September 2014. The exception is...

    And it seems some have spent more than what was allotted. The actions of Hull Tigers Limited are indefensible, it is simply wrong on any level of decent thinking; especially from a so-called community business.

    While we debate on the spirit of the ASI fund and how it should be used for the benefit of away fans, I think it's important that we don't lose site of one thing that came out of Ehabs interview.

    Either he and the people running our club are thick as pig **** and they're the only ones to misinterpret how the money could be spent.

    Or this is yet another web of lies, dreamed up, to cover the fact they've ****ed over the fans again and have no idea on how a football club should be run.

    "Always" <laugh>

    If I'd asked incessantly on a whole stack of threads, and ignored any answers, you could just have a point.

    Do not the 'improvements' to the Away End at the KC also benefit visiting rugby league fans ?

    Because I read recently that Adam Pearson is worried that the opposition teams supporters will not travel to the KC for the rugby?
    Also is not the 5% increase in away fans visiting the KC this season down to other clubs using this fund in the manner it was intended?
    For example, Arsenal chartering a Football Special from Kings Cross to Hull and back for Monday nights match.

    I think they have home fans in there for rugby don't they ?

    It would be quite ironic if Hull FC fans have had more benefit from this money than Hull City fans

    I don't get how that can work, didn't they have to move a fence or something, in order to move the away end?

    Unless the rugby lot are much too wellbehaved to require a fence. That could be it.

    I wonder if the ASI money was used to pay for the new gates to be erected? Thereby guaranteeing the safety of away supporters.

    You have; just email them instead of badgering OLM; this organisation actually welcomes it.

    You're obsessed with meeting me, do you have a problem we need to discuss, as it is becoming a bit of a concern for your well-being. I don't want to meet with you, I stopped valuing your opinion and methods a long time ago; your style is Allamesque, I wouldn't meet with them and there is no point in meeting with you. Stop causing these repetitive post exchanges - it seems to annoy folk; there's a good lad. <ok>

    Have you noticed that there aren't many in E1 at FC games nowadays? That is because following the actions of the well behaved rugby league fans throwing missiles at away fans and opposition players the police insisted on it no longer being unreserved seating. Now anyone misbehaving is easil traceable like at football. Another story the HDMdidn't bring you, preferring to print the usual "behave yourself football fans" diatribes from the likes of PCCorcoran whilst the police praise Ladies (sic) Day at Beverley as a fun filled day, full of people enjoying themselves, despite more arrests each year amongst the 14,000 attending than in the over 400,000 who attend City matches.

    Read RL forums and away fans won't come to Hull, and that includes Rovers, because of the behaviour of their fans. Meanwhile City is voted the best away trip and nearly always has a full allocation of away fans. Yet only one club has an overwhelming police presence. Another story you don't see in the HDM.

    I can't think of much more boring and pointless than meeting you, but reading your posts comes close.

    I don't even need to be there, it's just the opportunity for you to ask the club yourself as you seem to doubt those of us that were thre.

    Basically, I'm saying piss or get off the pot.

    It looks like you're backing out of getting the dfeinitive proof in favour of waffling on with your hackneyed bullshit version.

    OLM doesn't need you to pipe up, and I'm hardly badgering him by asking a question.

    Not that it's anything to do with you, but I'd spoken to the FSF before your suggestion.

    Now, do us all a favour and find someone else to bore ****less with your meaningless pap.

    Some of you seem a little sensitive to be football fans. A slap in the face? <laugh>

    So you were asked your opinions at the fwgs. And? Your suggestions were weighed up and discarded.

    There is no democracy in running a football club. If you want a direct say in that, buy the club. Your confusing being asked a view on something or a suggestion with a contract written in blood.

    All the hysterics remind me of a kid not getting his own way and demanding he knows best and why don't you listen to me waah waah waah.

    So one club has thrown 200k away by discounting tickets by 2.50? Kinell.

    Twenty of us give up our time to attend meetings with the club, at their request and you think it's funny that having asked our opinion, they ignore it, deliberately to make a petty vindictive point?

    Says far more about you than it does about us.

    Spineless ****basket.

    Hilarious stuff coming from the delicate little thing that wasn't allowed to go to games in December without the permission of his lass and who has a hissy fit when anyone disagrees with him.

    It also wasted the time of James Mooney and other employees, including reception and catering staff, all so that they could ignore the answers to the questions they asked. The club had money that could have increased our away support, which in turn helps our team, and Cupidstunt on here thinks we shouldn't complain.
